3、 Internal structure and working principle
CXLE82131XK integrates internal circuit modules such as VCC power supply module, undervoltage protection, overheating regulation, constant current control, leading edge blanking, and current detection. After the system is powered on, the bus voltage supplies power to the chip through the HV pin. When the voltage reaches the turn-on threshold, the control circuit starts working. The chip achieves constant current control by detecting the peak current of the inductor cycle by cycle. The CS pin is connected to an external sampling resistor, which is compared with the internal 0.373V threshold. When the CS voltage reaches the threshold, the power transistor is turned off, thus achieving precise current regulation.
The formula for calculating output current is:

The RCS is an external sampling resistor, which is designed flexibly and easy to adjust the output current.

4、 Design of Energy Storage Inductors and System Frequency
CXLE82131XK operates in critical conduction mode, and the system frequency varies with the input voltage. The choice of inductance directly affects system performance and efficiency. The inductance calculation formula is as follows:

To avoid the system entering intermittent or continuous mode, it should be ensured that the shutdown time is between the minimum demagnetization time (1.3μ s) and the maximum demagnetization time (250μ s) set by the chip to ensure constant current accuracy.
5、 Detailed explanation of protection function
The CXLE82131XK has multiple protection mechanisms to ensure the safe operation of the system in various abnormal situations:
· LED short circuit protectionWhen the output is short circuited, the system automatically enters a 4kHz low-frequency working mode with extremely low power consumption to avoid device damage.
· Overheating regulation functionWhen the surface temperature of the chip exceeds 120 ℃, it automatically reduces the output current, controls the temperature rise, achieves temperature closed-loop regulation, and improves the long-term reliability of the system.
6、 PCB design suggestions
A good PCB layout is the key to ensuring system stability and EMI performance:
· CS sampling resistorThe power ground wire should be short and thick, routed separately from the chip ground, and summarized to the bus capacitor ground. CS pin copper can enhance heat dissipation.
· HV pinKeep away from CS and other low-voltage signal pins to avoid noise interference.
· Power LoopMinimize the loop area between power inductors, power tubes, bus capacitors, freewheeling diodes, and output capacitors as much as possible to reduce EMI radiation.
· DRAIN pinIncrease the area of auxiliary copper to enhance the heat dissipation capability of the chip.
